[edit] Mackerel breeze

Looks like made-up slang to me. If it's real, it certainly doesn't warrent an article. Coolgamer 22:55, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete Neologism, silly vandalism, and dictdef rolled into one. --Aurochs (Talk | Block)
  • Transwiki to Wiktionary -- after googling it seems to be an archaic dicdef, not a neologism. Further research may be needed, but it doesn't belong here. Haikupoet 04:42, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Transwiki to Wictionary, per above. Jtmichcock 01:11, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Transwiki likewise - the definition comes from the American Meteorological Society's Glossary of Meterology (1959). I also found it in Smollett's Peregrine Pickle and Thoreau's 1865 Cape Cod, so it looks pretty archaic. Tearlach 01:27, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Transwiki per above. Billbrock 01:38, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete I don't think wiktionary wants hoaxes either. --אריאל יהודה 18:29, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
  • delete neologism. EdwinHJ | Talk 18:31, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
